cityboy Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Arrived in Sheffield. Because the trams aren't running, the park and ride car parks are available for free. There is one about 10 minutes walk away from the ground on Middlewood Road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bristolcitysweden Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 From footballgroundguide: There is some street parking to be had if you arrive early, although some roads near to Hillsborough are permit only, so make sure to check for warning signs before you park. Otherwise, there are some unofficial car parks along the A61 that charge in the region of £4. Gary Rickett-Ambrose adds; 'There is a car park directly behind the Kop and the Wednesday Club shop. It is called the Wednesdayite car park and is open to fans of both teams. It costs £7 for visitors and its post code is S6 1QE'. Alternatively, you may find it easier to park at Meadowhall Railway Station, near to the well known Shopping Centre (unless of course it is in the run-up to Christmas or the January sales, when the shopping centre is very busy), just by Junction 34 of the M1, where you can park for free and then take a yellow tram to Leppings lane, which costs £3 return and takes about 35 minutes. There is also the option of renting a private driveway near the Hillsborough Stadium via YourParkingSpace.co.uk. Post Code for SAT NAV: S6 1SW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bristolcitysweden Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 If you can behave I recommend The New Barrack Tavern for a pint of pre match real ale. Not far from Hillsborough. The Fat Cat of course but you need to catch a cab to the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBFC II Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I believe the trams are running to the hillsborough stop, which is 15 minutes from the ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityboy Posted April 22, 2019 Author Share Posted April 22, 2019 @MarcusX I'm sat in one called The Park currently smashing one of their big breakfasts, which was like £5-something. Bloody love northern prices!! Seems alright, quiet this early obvs, but a couple of Wednesday fans here already so imagine you'd be better off if you're not wearing colours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
